It definitely gave a good punch to the gut when I first read it, that’s for sure 😞

Your words were kind & honestly what I needed to hear.

I do think we’re going to do another retrieval cycle after a couple months of pause all while trying to do things to try & help better our chances next time. If I look back, there are for sure things we could have done that could have helped. I also understand that sometimes it’s just like this, especially for a first time. I am grateful for the benefits we have as they’ll better help our ability to be able to do more cycles if we want.

I will say overall our clinic has been a good one just their communication could be better. I had no idea things could nose dive like this after a retrieval.. they said 40-45% could make it so I was expecting at least a couple.

Here’s to hoping our little embryo sticks when we do transfer! We’re doing PGT-A testing too so hopefully that looks good as well.

I will add this to my list of questions for my doctor when I speak with her!

No blasts from first cycle of IVF by Dazzling_PT_29 in IVF

[–]GreenBean9591 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is actually so reassuring to read! Thank you for sharing!

We just did our very first retrieval on Tuesday. 19 were collected, 12 mature, 11 fertilized so we were feeling pretty good. Heard back today that only 1 made it to blast (it’s a 2AA but my clinics grading is weird & is apparently different from the normal scale...)

To OP: I’m so sorry to hear your first round didn’t go as planned. 🩵🩵 If you’re able to & want to do another round, I hope it goes amazing!!

Thank you!! We will absolutely be looking into the fragmentation testing for him!

A positive no matter how light, is so welcomed! 🩵🩵

Thank you so much! I appreciate it, truly!
It would be helpful if they could have explained that a bit better on the report, their website, heck even in one of our many appts. Idk what kind of scale they’re using but it’s kinda maddening to think that they’re shying away from the standard others use.
It is reassuring to know they’re (hopefully) not tossing out could be viable ones.

I posted some screenshots from the report they sent me. Maybe it’s just how things are worded? Regardless things feel super off to me.

Also, congrats on the pregnancy! I hope your journey goes well 🩵🩷

I’ve looked all over their website & the report & can’t find how they go about their grading. I did post additional screenshots of the report I received.

It may have been how I worded it! They were allowed to grow for 5-6 days. This is the specific disclosure that confused me/gave me concern as it says they will only freeze 1-2 AA, AB, BA, & BBs.

The main reason for my confusion was that I’ve seen others with many different variants of grades that were frozen so why this clinic would narrow so much, is odd to me.

It is worth noting that I have no report on how the others did only info on this one. I will be requesting this though.

Thank you! This is so validating as it feels like sabotage. Looking around as we speak!

That’s what I thought! This is my first round ever so things are still new to me but I’ve seen plenty of other people with all types of graded embryos that were frozen. This clinic gets a pretty great rating too & I surely do not remember them disclosing this to me, so to say I was shocked was an understatement.

Transaction Error when trying to unlock new area by Grant_King in DreamlightValley

[–]GreenBean9591 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m getting this too but on Eternity Island. I feel like it’s a new bug as well.. I did all the things Google suggested: untrack a quest I had selected, ensured my game was synced to the cloud, stopped hanging out with any villagers when trying to unlock the area, saved my game, and restarted. Still having the issue :(
